The team news is in and Eddie Jones has named a new look squad for Saturday's showdown. George Furbank, Ben Youngs and Freddie Steward are all in, while prop Will Stuart has been promoted to starting tight-head.
'They're going to be a massively aroused team. They come through the centre with their big forwards and once they tie you up a little bit, they spread the ball to the backs," Jones said.
Meanwhile, France head coach Fabien Galthie has made just one change as his side look to secure an historic Grand Slam. Damian Penaud makes it out onto the wing in hopes of bolstering the Les Bleus' attack. Some 82,000 Parisians will be cheering their side on at the Stade de France, one of the sporting world's most iconic stadiums.

Watch France vs England live stream free online
Good news: UK rugby fans can watch every match of the 2022 Six Nations free online at BBC iPlayer and ITV Hub.
France vs England airs on ITV. Kick off is 8pm GMT on Saturday, 19th March 2022. France TV's FR2 will also serve up free-to-air Six Nations coverage.

Watch France vs England from abroad using a VPN
Even if you have subscribed to the relevant 2022 Guinness Six Nations rights holders, you won't be able to access them when outside your own country. The service will know your location based on your IP address, and will automatically block your access.
A Virtual Private Network (VPN) helps you get around this obstacle. VPNs are a doddle to use and create a private connection between your device and the internet, helping you access local streams from anywhere – and saving you money!
How to use a VPN
Using a VPN is incredibly simple.
1. Install the VPN of your choice. ExpressVPN is the one we recommend.
2. Open up the VPN app and choose the location of the service you wish to access. For France vs England, you may wish to choose 'UK' for ITV Hub.
3. Then head over to ITV Hub on your browser or device and enjoy the free France vs England live stream.
If, for whatever reason, you can't get it working, do remember that you have the comfort of a 30-day money back guarantee with ExpressVPN. You could also try NordVPN, which also comes with a 30-day money back guarantee, and Surfshark which offers 24 hour assistance.
